The IE Daddy, the IE Twins and I were driving along on the freeway happily snacking on Chick-Fil-A…

IE Daddy: “Girls, be very careful eating in the car. It’s the only one we have”.
IE Twins: “Ok, daddy”

We drive for a few minutes when we hear a lot of stiffled giggling…

IE Daddy: Girls, don’t play around with your food in the car. You are going to spill something.  Remember…It’s the only car we have.

There is dead silence from the back seat.

Skylar: “Uh-oh!”
IE Daddy: “What?”
Skylar: “Rylan was trying to do a trick and she spilled all her french fries.”
IE Daddy: “Rylan, what part of “
It’s the only car we have” don’t you understand?”

Rylan: “Only!”

Teaching Moments with American Idol?

You know as a parent…you have to always have your eyes and ears open for teaching moments. Moments that life hands you that clearly explain a life lesson, character trait or integrity.

Recently I had one of those great moments while watching American Idol with my twins. I know, American Idol? I was kind of awe struck that the moment occurred.  Don’t get me wrong I enjoy American Idol..I get a kick (like the rest of America) watching the singers that make your cringe and rooting for the ones that truly have talent.

My girls are already experts at judging the singing talent and will loudly declare “You’re going to Hollywood!” for the performers they like. It is a show that we can enjoy together. One evening as we are watching AI in Georgia out pops Holly Hardin otherwise known as Guitar Girl.

Holly is a cute girl with decent vocals but she is dressed in a ridiculous and immature Guitar dress.. I kid you not.  She has a fun personality and gets a little ribbing from the judges.  As you know most people that dress silly are compensating for their lack of singing ability but Holly was different. She could actually carry a tune. The judging proceeds…does she or doesn’t she make it?

One of the judges comments how her outfit almost knocked her out of the competition instantly. To the judge it was a clear indication that Holly wasn’t taking this opportunity seriously. There was a golden ticket at stake and she was being a “character”…literally a guitar character!  I just had to jump on the band wagon and explain to my girls the importance of knowing when it is time to be funny and when it’s time to be serious. This is a lesson we have been trying to teach my sweet, Rylan.

It has been a struggle teaching her this lesson because Rylan is a natural born performer. She has a comic ability that will keep you rolling on the floor with laughter. But she hasn’t quite mastered the “off” switch so many times her humours antics turns into getting her in trouble. But now here in HD color was Holly “Guitar Girl” Hardin…risking it all because of humor!!!

Thank you Lord for the great teaching moment!!!

Did Rylan get it? Did Holly get it? Yep!! Holly made it to Hollywood and Rylan understood a little better why sometimes it’s okay to play the straightman and not the comic.

Let’s hope the lesson sticks….for both of them!
